Error 0x80240017 means WU_E_NOT_APPLICABLE:

//
// MessageId: WU_E_NOT_APPLICABLE
//
// MessageText:
//
// Operation was not performed because there are no applicable updates.
//
#define WU_E_NOT_APPLICABLE              _HRESULT_TYPEDEF_(0x80240017L)

This means the update misses the requirements to be installed. Build 7600 means you run the RTM without the Sp1. New updates/software require the installed Sp1.

Solution: Download and install the Sp1 to update to Build 7601.
